Cookies

These cookies are perfect for when you want something a little sweet, but don’t want to totally blow your calories for the day! These are so easy to make and the best part is you can eat the whole batch for under 250 calories! If you have ever wanted to eat a whole plate of cookies, now is your chance! Now if your expecting these cookies to taste like nestle tollhouse cookies or your grandmas homemade chocolate chip cookies than your in the wrong place, but I think they are pretty tasty and definitely help curb my 3 0’clock sweet tooth! Since I am now counting Macros, this recipe makes it easy to get in a few cookies without totally blowing my carbs for the day!

I made these cookies last week for Jordan, since he had been on a cookie craving the past couple days. Instead of having to make everything from scratch, I used just a cake mix box and some chocolate chips. These cookies turned out perfect and made quite a few! Unfortunately, the pics didn’t turn out super well. Since the cake mix was marble chocolate, the cocoa powder ended up giving these cookies a brownish look. So in the pics they look a little burnt. But they aren’t, they were deliscous and passed the test. Jordan is my taste tester and he gave them a thumbs up.

Here is what you will need:

A cake mix box (I used marble)

1/2 cup of chocolate chips

2 eggs

2/3 cup of Vegetable oil

I made these cookies according to the directions on the back of the box, added the chocolate chips and cooked for about 10 minutes. This cake mix made a ton of cookies. Over 24! It was so simple, I will definitely be making more cookies like this in the future!

My mom and I have been making these “healthy cookies” AKA “breakfast cookies” for years now. They are healthy (or at least I like to think they are), delicious and super easy to make! It is a family favorite and and something we make on a weekly basis. I always tweak the recipe up a little each time and they always turn out great. Here is the recipe:

– 2 very ripe bananas mashed

– 1 cup of rolled oats

– 2 tablespoons of milled flaxseeds

-1 tablespoon of chia seeds

– 1 tablespoon of PB2

-1 tablespoon of almond butter

– a small handful of chopped pecans or walnuts

-1/2 cup of dark chocolate chips

Mash the bananas add the rest of the ingredients listed in order and mix well. Form in to 1 1/2 inch balls and place on baking sheet. Bake for about 15 minutes.
